The “just in case” Inventory Specialists since 1957

What is “just in case” Inventory?

It is an inventory strategy in which companies tend to keep large inventories on hand.  This type of inventory management strategy aims to minimize the probability that a product will sell out of stock.  A company practicing this type of inventory strategy essentially incurs higher inventory holding costs in return for a reduction in the number of sales lost due to sold out inventory. 


This 'just in case' strategy is used by companies that may have trouble forecasting demand or that require excess service parts available for its loyal customers or dealers.  With this inventory strategy, companies tend to incur significantly higher
storage costs and personnel inefficiencies.  By selling this type of slow-moving, excess service parts or obsolete inventory to the industry leaders in customized inventory solutions at S.R. Sales, companies can recapture these efficiencies and improve their bottom lines without sacrificing customer service or OEM support.
